HOW TO SIGN UP FOR A REFEREE CLASS

Look through the list of classes for one in your area. On the far right you will see how many have registered for the course and the maximum number of students.

Select the blue course number.

The Course Information screen will have the class details and contact information. Write this down. Then select the link to register.

At this point you will need to create an account (if you don't already have one)

You may be asked for a Grade/age override code. Check your course information above for that. If it is not there, check with the contact person.

The format for this course has changed compared to years past. There is now an online component (approximately 3-4 hours) consisting of 14 instructional videos, associated chapter quizzes, and a 50 question final exam. These must ALL be completed prior to the in-person Classroom (8 hours) and Field (4 hours) sessions . You will have two chances to pass the online final exam. If you are successful, there is no exam at the Course; if you are not successful after two online attempts, you must retake the exam during the classroom course portion. There is also a mandatory 4-hr field session scheduled the day following the classroom session. At this point you will receive your certificate and referee patch.
